Sunday 10/27/2009: Miami's Gandolfo named Biro Award
All the hard work finally paid off for Minnesota's Seelay Nigaar. The left-hander was named the Biro Award winner in the Northern League today. Opposing players hit .231 against Seelay this season. While posting an ERA of 1.82 he went 26-4 in 36 starts, fanning 284 and walking 53 hitters. He has 6 complete games and 4 shutouts. He's 1st in the Northern League in ERA and 1st in wins! The Southern League Biro Award winner was announced today as well, with Miami's southpaw Joey Gandolfo taking home the desired trophy. He certainly earned it, he struck fear into hitters all year long. His ERA of 1.20 helped him to a 33-1 record this year. He struck out 274 and walked 10 in 300.1 innings. Joey has pitched 9 shutouts and 19 complete games. He's 1st in the Southern League in ERA and 1st in wins! Gandolfo wins the award for the 6th time in his 5-year career.

Sunday 10/27/2009: Walker (BOS) and Hildebrandt (MIA) win Soester Award
Boston's first baseman Jay Walker had a fabulous season, no doubt about it. The Northern League shared this opinion and names the 32 year old the Soester Award winner! Jay is hitting .351 this year, with 210 hits in 599 at bats. He has driven in 159 runs, slugging .654. He's 3rd in the Northern League in batting, 2nd in homeruns and 1st in RBI! A season for the ages earned Miami's leftfielder Henry Hildebrandt the Southern League Soester Award this year. This year Hildebrandt drove in 169 and scored 126 runs while batting .389 with 34 taters. He's 2nd in the Southern League in batting, 5th in homeruns and 1st in RBI! Hildebrandt wins the award for the 4th time in his 5-year career.

Sunday 10/27/2009: Chavez and Labastilla receive Noob Award
Getting an award is a nice way to start a career. Boston's Priest Chavez smiled as he was named the Northern League Noob Award winner. Priest is hitting .340 this year, with 216 hits in 636 at bats. He has driven in 109 runs, slugging .541. He's 5th in the Northern League in batting, 4th in homeruns and 8th in RBI! The 2009 Southern League Noob Award winner is from Miami this season. Carlos Labastilla put together impressive numbers for a rookie en route to win the first major award of his career. Let's hope more will follow for this 23 year old ballplayer. Opposing players hit .207 against Carlos this season. While posting an ERA of 1.99 he went 29-2 in 34 starts, fanning 198 and walking 83 hitters. He's 3rd in the Southern League in ERA and 2nd in wins!

Saturday 10/19/2009: Emil Almanzar quiets Minnesota bats with shutout
MIAMI - Miami's right-hander Emil Almanzar is clearly one of the best pitchers in the game. Minnesota found out the hard way, getting just 2 hits. Almanzar 6th shutout this season was a masterpiece, as he was almost untouchable. He has now hurled 8th shutouts in his career. 'I really like to play baseball, and I love the way I was able to play it today.' Almanzar (29-3) was overpowering, fanning 10 while walking 2, throwing 114 pitches. Jackie Borton provided Miami with the offense Almanzar needed as he collected 3 hits in 4 trips to the plate, hitting a double, scoring 2 runs.
